We’re down to the mixing on both projects!!! We are currently nomads as the Lord has moved us from our church in Chehalis. We are visiting different churches to present the music and message He’s given us.  

We’ve loved meeting new people and being involved in the many ways God’s people serve Him. We hope He will open many doors for us to travel with our music, not for our glory but in effort to bring hearts closer to our mighty Savior.

My eyes are filled with wonder by these vibrant autumn colors. The yellows and the reds look like splashes of paint on a life size canvas. The image grabs my attention and demands, almost commands me to compose a verse. I'm surrounded by astounding beauty, all set in motion by a magnificent Creator.

Local rising star Ericka Corban and her husband Mattaniah will perform her original music on Saturday, May 24, 2:00 pm and 5:00 pm at The Popcorn Factory, Wishkah and Broadway in Aberdeen. Her show is part of the grand opening for the Grays Harbor Street Market. 

 The Popcorn Factory is sponsoring Corban's appearance as part of the Grays Harbor Street Market grand opening on May 24.  There is no charge for admission, and Popcorn Factory owner Celia Barry explained, "We want to encourage young musicians to come in and play.  I was very impressed when I first saw Ericka perform in March and I am very pleased that she will be doing two shows at the Popcorn Factory for the Street Market opening." 

Corban, 23, appeared in an April 25 artist showcase sponsored by Seven17 Records, a Seattle independent record label and sister company to Track10, a northwest Christian music promoter.  Corban's single, "Fourteen" was included in the showcase compilation CD and subsequently played by Seattle's Spirit 105.3 FM radio station on their Local Music Project.  Says Corban, "It was kind of weird hearing my song sandwiched between Jeremy Camp and Casting Crowns!" 

Brenda Fysh of Track10 commented, "Ericka is very real onstage, which fits nicely with her acoustic style."  Regarding her musical future, Fysh continued, "Ericka can write about things that she has not experienced, such as her song about divorce, "Anymore."  This is a sign of a good songwriter, and I appreciate her lyrics." 

While Corban's schedule is managed by her two-month old daughter, Keziah, she continues to actively pursue her music career.  She is currently recording her original music at Pleasant Hill Recording Studio in Chehalis WA.  In early August, Corban will appear at "Music in the Rockies," a national music competition held in Estes Park, Colorado and sponsored by the Gospel Music Association. 

A sampling of Corban's music can be found on her website at www.myspace.com/erickacorban and track10.com

Hi! Here's the brief news since I wrote last

February 24 I had a beautiful baby girl we named: Keziah Jane

-The birth experience was beautiful and peaceful in our home with a midwife.

March - April - We moved to Chehalis, Washington where we serve as musicians for sunday worship and my husband is a youth pastor.

We are currently learning how to preserve our time for the things that matter most and are most beneficial to the church, and our families.
